Plagiarism is defined in dictionaries as the "wrongful appropriation," "close imitation," or "purloining and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions," and the representation of them as one's own original work.

We are victims of this and like in normal society we are the ones being told to shut up while the abuser is being lauded as needlessly harassed. This forum never did anything to stop plagiarism, but the readers always had your back and would point things out if they found them anywhere, but that is not the case any more because the forum is supporting a thief. Small details might not mean a big deal to some because their stories obviously aren't intricate enough to realise their importance, but our stories are built on details.

It is one thing to take a character completely from a universally recognised book or series (Harry Potter or Sherlock Holmes) and put them in your story, because the reader will recognise the borrowing, but it is completely another to take someone's character background and present it as your own. THAT is twisting the anonymity of the writer to your advantage. Similarly it is a miraculous coincidence that what happened in my story happens in another story the only difference is that of the reaction of the protagonist.

But what is done is done. You will no longer receive PM's from me, nor emails, because it looks like I am doing too much work for nothing. You may follow the blog, or refresh at your own leisure for updates, and NO none of my blogs will be open for "inspiration" any more. You know where to find me, just no longer on IF.
